Evidence per format
Each reader’s confidence level is computed from the development corpus by the confidence rubric, not assigned by hand. Files counts development files read; confirmed those that match an independent reader (or whose vendor-stored results, such as Chromeleon’s stored peaks, our decoded values reproduce: they confirm those signals only, see Vendor-stored results in the assurance chapter); sources distinct depositors among them; versions distinct format versions, writers and writer versions confirmed; agreement the share of files with an oracle that match it; inferred the share of normalized fields whose meaning was reverse-engineered rather than specified; held-out the generalization benchmark (pass/fail, measured on files never used for development).

The validated-variant tables themselves (every format version, writer, codec, layout and acquisition mode confirmed, with file and source counts) are in each reader crate’s src/assurance.rs; openreadout info FILE --json → assurance shows which of them a given file uses.
